About *NEW CHARACTERS* DC Comics meets Jack the Ripper in a new Radio Play

This is an audio project for DC Entropy, a multimedia fan-verse of the DC Comics universe on Twitter and Youtube. We're going to be launching our first community event soon, where followers will be able to vote on the direction of the story playing out across the event. Part newspaper articles and prose, we're including radio play segments for the first time. The story event is called 'See No Evil'.

At the end of the 19th century, Jack the Ripper finds his way to Gotham City and begins his killing spree once again. Pushed to the brink of what it means to be a hero, after discovering the lost ring of the legendary Green Lantern Yalan Gur, Alan Scott is hunted by the League of Shadows. Sworn to bring an end to Jack the Ripper, where does justice end and vengeance begin?

The deadline for auditions is midnight January 7th, 2018 GMT.

An engineer who becomes one of the first DC superheroes after discovering a magical ring that manifests his will. A gay man in a time where such behaviour was well hidden, he swears vengeance after his lover is killed, and he will stop at nothing to put an end to Jack the Ripper.

(happily) Dearest Sam, your letters are all that have kept me sane, these past four months. The Keystone Bridge is finally nearing completion and I'll be able to come home, at last. I've suffered you in my dreams every night, your voice a whisper in my heart.

(sad) I heard the whistle long before I'd reached the Opera House. Frantic, elongated blasts echoed through the fog and I knew. And yet still I ran, practically flew down the cobbled streets, hoping against hope.

(angry and sad yet hesitant) You don't understand. He was more than... he was more than a friend, I loved him.. like a brother. I can't let this go, I won't and I'm one of the few people in Gotham who have a chance of putting an end to this monster.

A tired old cop on the cobbled old streets of Gotham. Jim isn't afraid to line his own pockets, but with the infamous Jack the Ripper in town, he is desperate to stop him and fast before panic claims the city.

You think you can run around my city, causing chaos, terrorising the people of Gotham? Not on my watch, pal.

I want the city locked down. No one moves, no one takes a goddamned shit unless I say otherwise, am I clear?

A mystic based in Gotham, a very mysterious woman and much wiser than her age belies.

We all have a destiny, Alan Scott. But some destinies are greater than we could ever imagine. I have seen the paths you may yet still walk, some dark and tormented, others a beacon of hope to the world. Only you can decide.

One of the first female doctors who dreams of being a surgeon. Dr. Peabody is relegated to the mortuary, because women are not considered capable enough of dealing with a living body. Ambitious and jaded by men, Ethel is hungry to prove her skills.

(bristling) That is simply unacceptable, Captain Corrigan. I won't permit this woman's dignity to be stripped away with such rancor. I insist you have your men wait outside.

Line 2- (sad) I often wonder what stories they could tell us, you know. Are they in heaven, hell? Does death hurt..

Cyrus Gold grew in swampland in the northwest, his parents runaway slaves. An uneducated child, his parents died leaving him nothing but the deed useless swamp land. But Gold was ambitious and smart, he refused to let his lot in life define his future and he turned that deed into his ticket to luxury and freedom. Known as one of the wealthiest railroad barons in America, Cyrus Gold is a man who likes to be the life and soul of the party. But behind it all is a soul in pain.

(bitter and melancholy) You think you know who I am? What I am? You don't have the right to judge me. I came from nothing. A negro on the bayou. You could never know my kind of suffering. But I made something of myself. I made something of that swamp. I made myself the god damn king of Gotham. What are you compared to that?

(jovial, addressing crowd) Ladies and Gentlemen, let us raise a glass to our beloved city. Tonight we celebrate Gotham and all her majesty, tonight we dance.

(growing louder voice, intoning)Change! Change! O' form of man!Free the prince forever damned!Free the might from fleshen mire!Boil the blood in the heart for fire!Gone! Gone! O' form of manArise the demon Etrigan!!

(morbid) Who ever did this, they won't stop. This isn't just some mad man on the lose, there's something dark here. Something powerful at work.
